I’ve been involved with several online discussions regarding how Christians ought to forgive those who sin against them, and the catalyst for these discussions has been the Charlie Kirk assassination and his widow, Erika Kirk’s, stating that she forgives her late husband’s assassin at his memorial service. These discussions have often been passionate and interesting, and I’d like to offer my thoughts. I’m of the opinion that Christians are not called to forgive those who have wronged them in the absence of repentance. I’d like to explain and defend my reasoning for my conclusions.
